I started Blue Shed Urban Gardens, LLC last year after converting my lawn to 6 raised beds on my property in Wash Park. I want to make my business self-sustaining and do this through a spring seedling sale, selling a portion (about 25%) of my produce/baked goods/jams/simple syrups and hosting events. With greenhouse fabric on all 8 beds on my lot, I have been able to grow year-round, providing food to organizations, friends and family.
One of Blue Shed's focus is on food equity and I am passionate about this critical issue. Through my social media platform I try to provide information on organizations that address hunger in our city. Sharing is caring, and last year I donated over half of what I grew (400+ lbs) to food pantries and pay-what-you-can cafes. Through my actions I hope people will see how they can make an impact on the number of people lacking access to fresh food in our community while also enjoying the growing process.
